The WireTap Riff Recorder pedal from TC Electronic is the ultimate tool for any serious songwriter.

WireTap Riff Recorder is the must-have tool for every serious songwriter out there. With this ultra-compact pedal firmly secured to your pedalboard you'll never see yourself lose that killer riff or super-catchy melody ever again when inspiration strikes. Just hit record, jam on like you're used to, and begin building your majestic song catalogue right there on the spot in collaboration with the free WireTap app. McCartney had Lennon, Hetfield has Hammett, you have WireTap!

Perfect Pedal MemoryWe guitarists tend to trust our own memory too much. We create that million-dollar riff, tell ourselves we'll remember it for later, and when we return…GONE! We take notes, use voice recording apps but nothing really sticks. There's simply too many steps and distractions from the moment of inspiration to when it's captured. With WireTap there's only one step, or rather one stomp. Press record and start playing, WireTap will take care of the rest right there on your pedalboard.

Work SmarterBecoming a great songwriter takes work and dedication, but that doesn't mean you can't work smarter to get to the good songs faster. The free WireTap app lets you do just that. When you've captured your ideas on the pedal, simply sync it up with the app via Bluetooth to transfer your riffs and sketches to your phone. You can also use the app as a high-quality standalone recorder for capturing quick ideas on the go. From there you can tag, name, group, trim and share your riffs in the app, giving you a structured and highly efficient workflow. The distance from rough riff to finished song of awesomeness has never been shorter.

No Compromise On Quality And QuantityWireTap Riff Recorder is the perfect example of how quality and quantity don't have to be mutually exclusive. This tiny pedal offers more than 8 (!!!) hours of recording time, all stored in glorious 24-bit uncompressed audio for you to work on later in your DAW of choice or in the WireTap App. So say goodbye to voice recording apps and hand-held recorders that constantly clip and run out of space, and say hi to your new favorite songwriting partner.

TC Electronic pedals are a personal favorite of mine and the new WireTapp Riff Recorder is a great addition to my collection. I get 8 hours of recording any idea I want and the pedal is super easy to use. A must have for anyone that loves looper pedals.

I usually use my phone to record riffs I think of but this pedal changes the game. It's essentially a riff organizer, you can record your ideas and upload them to a computer for storage. Any time you have an idea just click it on and go. It saves a lot of space on my phone.

TC Electronic has done it again with their compact designs and cleverly useful ideas. This pedal is great for helping you write riffs and songs. You can record your ideas on the fly and recall them later on the phone app which pairs with the pedal.

Great pedal for recording and storing ideas on the fly. Comes with a free app to work with the pedal for working n songs on the go. very easy to use and a great price for tis unit. You can store up to 8 hours of audio (which is a lot lol) for all your ideas as you come up with them!
